Back in April, I wrote about micro-investing. I highlighted the Order of the Stick KickStarter project which raised over $1million, just so the guy could reprint one of his books. As loved as OotS is, it’s small potatoes. The big guns of online comics now have their own KickStarter project. Penny Arcade is raising money to make the site ad free for an entire year (and still be able to pay all their bills).
They are looking for $250k by August 15. Given that in one day they were over halfway to their goal, I’d be eyeing those stretch goals.
